The Eyris

The Sky Arena is a vast, open-air envelope suspended high above, anchored at a single point to the towering Garud spire, while the rest floats freely, allowing the Akashveers to move effortlessly through its boundless space. Its monumental scale unfolds like a sky-borne amphitheater, where flight becomes both ritual and performance. Within its soaring shell lie carved voids—resting alcoves and perching sanctuaries—offering moments of stillness amid the rush of wings. Discreetly nestled along the arena’s inner curvature, private viewing pods grant silent witness to the spectacle, framing the drama of aerial motion in quiet solitude. The air itself hums with tension and vitality, a charged atmosphere where gravity softens, and the sky becomes a stage for precision, power and grace.
